I have noticed today that I am not embracing who I am. I need to love myself more…I mean, I am pretty awesome, so I don’t know why i cannot convince myself sometimes that I am. I know that they sometimes that you are your harshest critic, but wow. I think I am more than harsh on myself. I consider myself laid back…like really laid back, but lately the little things have been getting to me.

So here are some things I love about myself, that I am going to try to embrace more.
– I am quirky. I love the fact that I don’t let the “ordinary” way influence me. I am quite fine having a porch swing as my sofa, and walking around barefoot everywhere.
– I imagine the impossible and truly believe it could happen someday. I mean, I think its great and practical that highways in the US could be lined with solar panels to make us not reliant on oil and nuclear energy. I also imagine that I will be content.
– Laughing is awesome, and I like to do it.
– I almost never say no to things, esp. when its something I haven’t tried before. Hang gliding? Yes please! I don’t want to limit myself.

and now here are some things I want to work on more:
– being more confident
– becoming stronger (mentally and physically)
– being more proud of myself, not to other people, but to myself
– being honest to both myself and others
– being more environmental (I want a compost and to decrease my trash output)
– becoming more fit
– living simply
